    Hi
    Qt 5.6 might use c++ constructs that 2008 do not handle etc.
    So there might be issues compiling it.
    You cant use 2012 ? or simply use 2015/17 ?

      I want to use qt for old wince platforms, so I need to use vs08.
      Also that document use msvc2008 to configure qt.
      I think there is some kind of conflict between qt docs and source README file.
      I'm confused.

          Hmm, I think I should do that.
          But what about Qt documentation? I suspect if I'm doing something wrong here but the steps are too simple to do mistakes.

              Sorry for asking this, it's off topic, Qt4 is stable?

                  yes qt 4.8.6 4.8.7 is very stable but very old.
                  but still valid.

                  but
                  http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.6/requirements-wince.html
                  says active perl is needed. u have it ?

                  It should work with 5.6
                  Sorry wince is a bit unknown to me :)

                    Yes I installed active perl and active pyton and ruby at latest version, still nothing changed.
                    As I said README file says vs12 or later, but docs says vs08 is valid. :-?

                      well 2005/2008 seems the supported version. wince is pretty old so that makes sense.
                      let me see if google can help.

                          So it must mean you have a license.

                            I don't know, I installed vs08 professional and there was wince standard sdk and I installed that too, I wrote some code for wince in vs08 and they worked fine, but I like to use qt for that.

                            if you tell me what service pack I should install more I will find that.

                                It's commercial option? really? I have opensource one.
                                The docs doesn't say this is for commercial version only!

                                      then i guess 5.6 is better to use.
                                      I assume that 5.8 uses type_traits and vs 2008 didnt have back then.

                                        OK I will download Qt5.6.
                                        If that didn't work I will use Qt4.8.
                                        If none of them work I will continue posting state here.

                                          np. i did read the docs a bit more careful and it seems that 5.6 is the version for wince and
                                          it must be 2008 as wince died in later versions.

                                          And yes by all means do come back if it wont compile.
                                          There might be other users that use wince still.
                                          Such a cute little windows :)
